Let Me See Thy Face and Die | Christian Song Lyrics | Yeshu Geets

 Verse 1

To Thee, great God of love! I bow,

And prostrate in Thy sight adore;

By faith I see Thee passing now;

I have, but still I ask for more,

A glimpse of love cannot suffice,

My soul for all Thy presence cries.

I cannot see Thy face, and live,

Then let me see Thy face, and die!

Verse 2

Moses Thy backward parts might view,

But not a perfect sight obtain;

The gospel doth Thy fulness show To us,

by the commandment slain;

The dead to sin shall find the grace

The pure in heart shall see Thy face.

I cannot see Thy face, and live, Then

let me see Thy face, and die!

Verse 3

Surrounded by the saints of old,

We now by faith approach

to Thee Shall all with open face behold

In Christ the glorious Deity;

Shall see, and put the Godhead on,

The nature of Thy sinless Son.

I cannot see Thy face, and live,

Then let me see Thy face, and die!
